It's 1939 and King Arthur has been exiled from his country for over 1400 years. Left to fight for them from the outside, he infiltrates the Nazi forces in occupied France and works to sabotage the first air raid on London.

After 1500 years in exile, Arthur has finally returned to his homeland. Unfortunately, the only people who recognize him are two Welsh teens caught up in the political turmoil of the rising tensions in their country. 6th century fantasy collides with the dystopian in this near-future setting for a fresh twist on the Arthurian legend.

Mischief and adventure reign in this tangle of love stories featuring famous knights of the round table in Chrétien de Troyes’s classic story.


A knight who has fallen in love with a mere servant girl… A lady cornered into marrying the man who killed her first husband… And a lion utterly devoted to the knight who saved him.

Her whole life, she’s been preparing for this one moment.


12-year-old Charlie Sands was raised on the quiet banks of colonial Maryland, but when her guardian dies unexpectedly, she’s faced with a choice: spend the winter alone in her wooden cabin or sail in search of her seafaring parents.

Rough waters and navigation charts are the least of Charlie’s problems. When she gets captured by pirates, Charlie is determined to find a way to not only make it to her parents’ ship, but to prove to them once and for all that she’s fit to be a permanent member of their crew.
